Frequently Asked Questions

Getting here

The Ballachulish Hotel is just off the main A82 Glasgow to Fort William Road, situated 400yds from the Oban (A828) roundabout underneath the Bridge. Coming from Glasgow or Stirling you will pass by the village of Ballachulish and will come to a roundabout. Take the right hand (Oban) exit. If you cross the Ballachulish Bridge you’ve gone wrong! If coming from the North you will pass over the Ballachulish Bridge then come to the same roundabout. Take the left hand (Oban) exit. If you reach the village of Ballachulish again you’ve taken the wrong exit. If you are travelling from Oban you will see the Bridge ahead of you and the hotel is right by the road.

There is ample parking adjacent to the hotel and along the lochside on the other side of the road. Please do be careful when crossing!

Advance Purchase Rates

Advance purchase rates require full prepayment at the time of booking. This payment is nonrefundable and cannot be exchanged for other reservation dates, accommodation, goods or services. Our Advance Purchase rates are better value than other more flexible rates. One reason for the lower prices is this – if you cancel you will still have to pay and there are no refunds or exchanges, so the only way to get your money back is if you are covered by holiday insurance.

Best Available Rates

We don’t ask for a deposit so you can pay the full balance of your stay when you arrive. Your break can be transferred to alternative dates (if they’re available), and we need 48 hours’ notice of any cancellation. If you choose to cancel within 48hours before you are due to arrive then we can’t offer an exchange and payment will be taken from your credit card and the only way to get your money back is if you are covered by holiday insurance.
